Kepler-293 is a star located 3180 light-years away, with a reported age of 4.68 billion years. Its reported mass is 0.94 solar masses, smaller than the Sun's, and its reported radius is 0.92 solar radii. The star's reported temperature is 5550 K, cooler than the Sun's.
Two planets are known to orbit Kepler-293. Both are Neptune-like worlds discovered by transit in 2014. Kepler-293 b has a reported radius of 3.07 Earth radii and a year of 19.3 days, the shortest among the listed planets. Kepler-293 c has a reported radius of 3.83 Earth radii - larger than Earth's, as is Kepler-293 b's - and a year of 54.2 days, the longest among the listed planets. Kepler-293 c is also the largest of the two by reported radius estimates.
